I believe that the way you start a community that is based on sports is the same way that you start every other community on any particular niche that you want. The most important thing is for you to be knowledgeable on the niche of the forum that you want to start and have passion for it.

Starting a sports forum is exciting! Begin by defining your forum's niche – whether it's general sports talk or focused on a specific sport. Choose an easy-to-remember name and a user-friendly platform. Invite friends or enthusiasts to kickstart discussions. Share engaging content like news, highlights, or fun facts to attract members. Be active and encourage conversations, creating a welcoming atmosphere. Consider basic forum categories like team discussions, game analyses, or general sports chatter.

Are you wanting to make a forum about a specific sport or generally all sports? You'd probably be better off making a forum about one specific sport, since it would be easier to manage. What you can offer is a fantasy section, where members could manage certain sports teams and possibly offer credits to earn tangible items like gift cards, or even money alongside your typical sections like talking about your favorite teams, favorite players from the past and present, etc.

First of all decide on what kind of forums you want to run, a free forum or self hosted forum. If you decide on self hosted, you can also decide between open source platforms or premium platforms. Once you decide on how you want to set up your forum, you can go forward with your plan. The kind of forum you want to start should depend on available resources and your skills.
